1958, “Песня о тревожной молодости (Song of the Restless Youth)”, Lev Oshanin (lyrics), Aleksandra Pakhmutova (music):Не надобно нам покою,
Судьбою счастлив такою.
Ты пламя берёшь рукою,
Дыханьем ломаешь лёд.- Ne nadobno nam pokoju,
Sudʹboju sčastliv takoju.
Ty plamja berjóšʹ rukoju,
Dyxanʹjem lomaješʹ ljod. - We need no rest;
happy with this fate.
Ye take the flame with your hand,
with your breath break ice.
